Can Niall convince her to marry him?

I love how Amelia-Rose tries so hard to be a prim and proper miss to please her mother. But that isn't her nature and that's why Niall falls in love with her. He and his brother may think they want a young girl who will be meek and mild so they can leave them in London and go home to do what they please. Amelia-Rose won't be left behind and Niall finds he can't live without her. She has been under her mother's thumb her whole life and she just wants to get out of the house. She is pretty much willing to marry someone just so she can do that. Once she meets Niall, she realizes that she wants to marry for love, not position. Her parents are dead set against her marrying Niall as he is a third son and has no title. Can Niall convince her to give it all up and marry him?

Good Story and Good Characters

London socialite Amelia-Rose Baxter is nobody’s fool. Her parents may want her to catch a title, but she will never change who she is for the promise of marriage. Her husband will be a man who can appreciate her sharp mind as well as her body. A sophisticated man who loves life in London. A man who considers her his equal―and won’t try to tame her wild heart.
This was a great story that I really enjoyed. I really liked both characters. The story flowed well and I read through it rather quickly. I highly recommend.

A historic romance for fans of Outlander!

Five stars for the title and cover, three stars for the story!

This was a book I turned to in the midst of a book rut. I needed something light and romantic, and I had never read a Suzanne Enoch book before!⁣

The plot isn’t as campy as the title/cover would have you think. This is the story of three Scottish brothers who are forced to come to London to find wives due to an agreement between their estranged parents (Mom lives in London while Dad lives in Scotland). Naturally, the brothers are reluctant suitors as they have no interest in London society, having lived a more rustic life in the Highlands their entire life.⁣

Enter stage left Amelia-Rose, a proper English girl whose parents are desperate to marry her off to a man with a title. She has an instant connection with one of the brothers but her parents have other, more refined gentlemen in mind...⁣

If you love historic romances, forbidden love tropes, or books that are set in Scotland/England with sexy men with even sexier brogue accents (think the OUTLANDER series but not quite so much action) you will enjoy this one!⁣

Swoon worthy

3 brothers from the highlands travel to England at the "request" of their mother, to find English brides. This is the first book in a series and one I definitely want to continue reading. I connected with the characters so I want to see what happens next to them.

I do think that the heroine was a little too knowledgeable for a young unbedded female. But the romance was sweet and swoon worthy and the heroine was a strong female who found her own which is always a pleasure to read.

I look forward to reading the story of the other two brothers.

Enoch never disappoints

Enjoyed this book, as I have her others. She's a dependable good read, delivering up romance that readers want as well as humor and good dialogue. Not crazy about the title, but don't judge a book by its title.

English Roses Can Be Just As Wild As The Highlanders

Suzanne Enoch offers readers an enchanting twist on the marriage mart in this, her first title in The Wild Wicked Highlanders series. It's Getting Scot In Here introduces readers to the MacTaggart men.
Who, though they may be the sons of a proper English lady. Have no intention of taming their Highland wilds in order to find the English brides that their legacies require.

Amelia-Rose should be the quiet and demure "seen and not heard" English Rose that society requires.
She should be...
But she is not.
Blessed with a quick wit and an even quicker tongue. Lady Amelia is not one to just sit idly by, and let barbed slights fly.

But one look into the celadon eyes of Niall MacTaggart and all she can do is smile.
Which would be a good thing.
If she wasn't promised to his brother.

This "right love wrong brother" love story is one in which readers really get to know both Amelia and Niall. Just as they get to know each other.
Although it is easy to feel bad for Niall's brother for missing out on the awesomeness that is Amelia. The time does come when one can't help rooting for Niall.
*I recieved this book in exchange for an honest review.
Playing a close second plot-wise to Niall and Amelia.
The backstory of Niall's mother and her desertion of the boys.
The more that one comes to know about her, however. The more one comes to understand her reasons for leaving.

It's Getting Scot In Here is a very sweet, mid-paced romance. Brimming with characters that a reader can't help loving.
And a "happily..." tailormade for the wild at heart.

Highland Regency At It's Best!

I love me some good regency and highlander romances! I love the time period. Fascinated by it, really. If I could be born in any era, it would be the regency era and live in either Highland Ireland or Regency England during that period. I mean seriously. The men of that time are to literally die for. I love their descriptions, I love their accents coming off the pages of the books, I’m just simply a regency lover. No doubt about it.

Sitting down to read Enoch’s first book in her Wild Wicked Highlanders series was an absolute joy. Enoch created a wonderful plot line and filled it with beautifully chiseled characters. She has a master talent for making them come to life, that’s for sure! Whewee! Those darling Scottish men…..yes please!

Niall and Amelia-Rose are wonderful characters. I loved seeing them together. Their friendship blossomed, and their love was just right. I loved seeing it develop and felt every spark of passion between them as if I was in Amelia-Rose’s shoes and Niall was my guy. Loved that feeling!

Enoch has definitely hit a home run with this 4 star book, in my opinion. It’s got the perfect blend of sass, romance, captivating characters and room for so much more with the next books in the series. These Scotsmen and their ladies have definitely stolen my heart for the long haul and I can’t wait for the next one.
